Workshop 3: Affinity Diagrams & Interrelationship Diagraphs

The tools practiced in this workshop are:

Brainstorming

Affinity diagrams

Interrelationship diagraphs

Situation:

Consider that you/your group works for Vic & Anthony’s (a premier steakhouse restaurant) and you have been tasked with perfecting the “customer experience.” In the Analyze phase of your Lean Six Sigma project, you decide to brainstorm ideas for why customers might have a negative experience dining with you. Then, you plan to use an affinity diagram and an interrelationship diagraph to organize all these ideas and then pin-point the key driver(s) and outcome(s) of this problem.

Instructions:

Use information from your training manual in Analyze Phase – Lessons 2-6 to assist you with the activities that follow. Be sure to follow the “best practices” for each tool you use in this workshop.

Activities:

Please briefly summarize (in just one sentence or so) the results from your interrelationship diagraph in terms of a cause-and-effect relationship between your key driver(s) and key outcome(s). [Please note that if your conclusion does not make sense initially in terms of a logical cause-and-effect relationship, you may need to revise the work in your interrelationship diagraph.]
